I just can't sleep tonight Knowing that things ain't right It's in the papers It's on the TV It's everywhere that I go Children are crying Soldiers are dying Some people don't have a home But I know there's sunshine behind that rain I know there's good times behind that pain, hey Can you tell me how I can make a change? I close my eyes and I can see a brighter day I close my eyes and pray (and pray) I close my eyes and I can see a better day I close my eyes and pray (and pray) I lose my appetite Knowing kids starve tonight Am I a sinner? 'Cause my dinner Is still on my plate I got a vision To make a difference And it's starting today 'Cause I know there's sunshine behind that rain I know there's good times behind that pain, hey Can you tell me how I can make a change? I close my eyes and I can see a brighter day I close my eyes and pray (and pray) I close my eyes and I can see a better day I close my eyes and pray I pray for the broken-hearted I pray for the life not started I pray for all the ones not breathing I pray for all the souls in need, I pray Can you give them one today? I just can't sleep tonight Can someone tell how to make a change? I close my eyes and I can see a better day I close my eyes and pray (and pray) I close my eyes and I can see a better day I close my eyes and pray (and pray) I pray I pray I pray I close my eyes and pray (and pray)
